Miniature Rotary Batch Mixer

Description

A new “MX-5-SS” Miniature Rotary Batch Mixer from Munson Machinery reportedly blends ingredients in ratios as extreme as one part per million with 100% uniformity in less than three minutes, regardless of disparities in the bulk densities, particle sizes or flow characteristics of batch ingredients.

The mixer features a rotating drum with proprietary mixing flights that tumble, turn and fold material gently as well as rapidly. Unlike stationary mixing vessels that leave a residual “heal” of material after discharge, the rotating vessel and internal flights reportedly lift and direct the entire batch through a plug gate valve for complete evacuation with no residual material, improving product quality and process control while facilitating rapid, thorough cleaning.

The mixer has a drum capacity of 10 cu ft (283 liters), and a batch capacity of 5 cu ft (141 liters) and 500 lb (227 kg), and is equally effective in blending of batches that comprise between 5 to 100 percent of rated capacity, offering flexibility in laboratory and production environments.
